At least they picked a major they are passionate about pursuing.
At least they have a general plan for their future.
Meanwhile, you havenoidea what youre doing with your life.

Unsure of whether you should takethispath orthatone.
When you were younger, you never thought it would be this hard.
Now you realize how hard those things are when it comes down to it.

Paying for gas money.
You barely have a social life anymore, because you spend the majority of your week working.
Trying to earn an even bigger paycheck than the one from last week.

You dont have any time foryourself, let alone time to get together with long lostfriends.
You feel like you exist to work but you dont evenlikeyour current job.
You arent where you want to be in life.
Not that you know where youwantto be.
You havent exactly figured that part out yet.
And you feel like you are the only one.
You hate that they are moresuccessfulthan you are.
You hate that they are happy.
To fill your fridge with healthy meals.
To wake up without snoozing your alarm at least once.
To make it through the week without cracking open cheap beer.
You have no idea what youre doing with your life but you arent the only one.
You arent a failure.
There isnt a set timeline that you are required to follow.
Everyone moves at their own pace.
Everyone has different milestones and reaches those milestones at different times.
You are not as alone as you think.
You are not the onlytwenty-somethingquestioning who you are and why youre here and where youre meant to go next.
Stop acting like no one else understands what youre going through because almost everyonedoes.
